Perhaps I have a few cousins in Scotland, as well, on the Ferguson side. I can combine my hunt for the Loch Ness Monster with playing the Bagpipes – also on my #bucketlist – and perhaps pick up a bit of the Ferguson tartan plaid while I’m there. I think I’d like to spend a night in a real castle, while I’m there.

Glad to see you back on the A-Z trail. You have some catching up to do. I hope all is well. I was beginning to get concerned about you.

Yes. One of these days, I’ll learn to just skip a letter and move on… no, I’ve had a lot of work (day job) and some things to get ready for an out of town conference at the end of the month – those were just a little more important and urgent than A to Z, truth be told. I’m trying to catch up, but no promises! 🙂 Glad to know someone noticed, Rasheed. 🙂

I enjoyed the pygmy reference! There is something I’d like you to bring back for me if/when you go to Scotland. I’ll tell you about it WHEN you make your reservations!
All right! Sounds like a plan.
I actually visited Loch Ness with the hope of ‘sighting’ and was disappointed that I could not. But the loch itself, like all the other lochs of Scotland is a beautiful sight to behold.

Key to enjoying travel – and life in general – is to keep expectations minimal. (Easier said than done!) I’m glad you enjoyed the view, despite Nessie’s shyness! I’d really be going for the view. Oh, and to taste a proper haggis, of course. And to listen to, maybe play, the bagpipes. I like to imagine Nessie is the last living brontosaurus… but in truth, I doubt she exists at all. It’s maybe better that she remain a tantalizing mystery that doesn’t put in predictably regular appearances for the tourists, eh?

Real, or imagined, I want to keep Nessie! She’s a gentle giant. And I would definitely try to sleep in a castle while in Scotland!

Barbara!! I had to fish your comment out of spam. I gave my bouncer a lecture about it, but I can’t promise he won’t have issues in the future, and his particular school of bouncing teaches not to let more than one or two links in, at most. I think that’s what his issue was – not entirely sure. You have a gravatar, so that’s not his problem. But he’s raising his eyebrow about SOMETHING… sorry it took me so long to fish your comment out!

I’ve always wanted to visit the Loch, but I still have yet to make my way to Europe. If there was a Nessie, she’s probably dead by now.

I prefer to think she’s the genetic key to immortality. Turtles can live centuries – why not Nessie?
